UAL should've been told to fly a specific heading when they were cleared to take off, that Cessna had to have been on the ATC radar screen.  I smell a firing coming up shortly.

Or how they used a picture of JFK's tower instead of the Tower in San Fran...

Point is, when it comes to aviation, the general media really has no idea what they are talking about.  Someone just writes a script for them based off of what they think they no and the blubbering idiot just reads it. ;)

yeah, really annoys me. Although I enjoy laughing at reporters when they have no idea what they are talking about :)
